Turtlebot

Setup

Connecting to the turtlebot via ssh

The turtlebot is connected to the network called “nettbrett”, so you should use a development computer that is connected to this network. It is recommended to use the vixen-machine because all ports between the turtlebot and computer are open.

You can connect to the turtlebot by ssh-ing into it. The turtlebot is configured with key authentification, so it you have to generate a key pair for authentication purposes before connecting to the turtlebot. Follow these steps to do so:

   1) On your computer, navigate to the .ssh folder: cd ~/.ssh
   
   2) Create the key pair and give the key pair a suitable name key-name: ssh-keygen
   
   3) Send the public key to [robin-engineer@ifi.uio.no](mailto:robin-engineer@ifi.uio.no). This key is in the key-name.pub file.
   
   4) Write the following lines in the .ssh/config file:
   
   Host turtle
     Hostname 193.157.209.133
     User ubuntu
     IdentityFile ~/.ssh/your_key_pair_name
   

- When the public key is added to the authorized keys on the turtlebot, you can connect to the turtlebot by running the command: ssh turtle
